RPGFan is reporting that the DS version of Final Fantasy IV will be shipping out sometime in July, 2008. The listing for the title on Gamefaqs confirms this information. The May 2008 issue of Nintendo Power revealed the news that the game was in the process of being localized by Square Enix, but didn’t offer an expected release date. Hopefully the report is true. A preview of the Japanese version ofFinal Fantasy IV DS previously appeared on Gamertell in December, 2007.
For those who missed the Nintendo Power or Gamertell previews, the DS version of Final Fantasy IV is more a rebuild than a remake. The game has been rebuilt from the ground up. It is now graphically similar to Final Fantasy III, features an expanded storyline, contains voice acting and FMV sequences, has retooled characters and many other new concepts to enhance gameplay.
I hope this rumored July 2008 release is true. Final Fantasy IV for the DS was phenomenal in Japanese, and I can’t wait to play a version where I can actually understand what the characters are saying.
